The new method, which uses quantum dots, performs as well as or better than current infrared light sources while being much ...

We developed a hybrid copper–iodide compound called CuI(Hda). It emits deep-blue light at about 449 nanometres and has an almost-perfect photoluminescence quantum yield — a measure of emission ...

From shallow reefs to pitch-black depths, the ocean is alive with sparkling lights. Fish, squid, clams and plankton have found a wide range of ways to glow, shimmer and flash, lighting up the dark ...
